  • I've never made a good meatloaf and avoided them like the plague. I haven't made one in years because of that very reason....well that's until I made this one. This is a delicious meatloaf recipe. I'm glad I faced my fear!!! I hope you enjoy it as well. The recipe is below.
    1-1/2 lbs. ground beef
    1/3 cup Worcestershire Sauce
    1/3 cup chopped celery
    1/3 cup chopped onion
    1 tblsp. minced garlic
    2 beaten eggs
    1 cup bread crumbs (I used canned but back in the '70's, I'm sure white bread was used....your choice)
    2 tblsp bacon grease
    a few shakes of tabasco sauce
    1 tsp salt
    1 tsp pepper
    Preheat oven to 350 (I used 375)
    Mix all ingredients together until very well combined
    Bake 45 min to 1 hr. or until the internal temp. reaches from 155 to 165
    Topping:
    1/2 cup ketchup
    3 tblsp Molasses
    1 tblsp bacon grease
    Spread on top of the meatloaf before you bake it

    I made this tonight. It was absolutely AMAZING! It really is the best meat loaf we've ever had. I did add a half tsp of salt and and a half tsp of pepper, other than the extra salt and pepper, I followed your recipe exactly. Thank you for sharing Elvis recipe. YUM!!!

    Winner Winner Meatloaf Dinner! Made this last night. Have a bit left for hot meatloaf sandwiches tonight. I always like how you add the veggies to same pan as your meat. Easy, and the veg cooks in the juices. I used a huge pan so that the carrots were all single layer. So so good. 💚

I also put in sausage, Worchestershire sauce, A1 steak sauce, chopped onions and peppers plus the standard ingredients for meatloaf!! Hope you enjoy it!! Emily from Missouri!!!😁😁😁😁

    • @Handsthatcook
      @Handsthatcook  8 лет назад +6

      Hi Roxy, My Mom was a very wise woman and I miss her (as we all do that have lost our parents) As we age, priorities change. Most "things" become insignificant except the love and kindness you have for others. No matter how they treat you. It's sometimes not easy but the reward is so great if you keep looking toward the ultimate goal of eternal life with Jesus. I would be nothing, my life would mean nothing, my existence period, would mean nothing if there was a void inside me that wasn't filled by Jesus. He gives us all purpose and without that, what is there to live towards? There is a forward position for each and every one of us.
      It isn't about how much you have, how big your home is, what kind of fancy car you drive or the influential friends you've acquired. All of that means nothing in heaven. But, God knows our hearts, wants a relationship with all of us and promises us eternal life. What more could anyone ask for?
      Sorry to have rambled on and on. Thank you so much for your kind words. I appreciate it and it's a blessing to me. Linda

Recipes are for guidelines you adjust to your liking. You said 2 Tbsp of bacon grease but was using a tsp so used more than 2 spoonfuls and that seem to cause people a hissy fit. Gloves or no gloves, it's your family eating it, who cares! I appreciate your time and effort. Stay special!

    Well now, isn't that something...meatloaf ala Elvis! Can't wait to give it a go, actually. I have never been good at meatloaf either~ nor has it ever been my favorite dish, but you all have me intrigued with this one. That story of Sam's, about dating the Don Ho dancer after Elvis "discarded" her? That's fairly intriguing as well:) My my, such lives we lead, huh? Everyone's got their own special history and it's one of the reasons I just love listening to folks who have lived a good long while~never a shortage of stories for the interested ear:) Thank you so much for sharing with us sweet woman, I think I might try this for Sunday supper this week~ God Bless and keep you near, enjoy the weekend!

    Hi Linda, I'm from Alabaster, Alabama and I'm a new subscriber. My favorite part of your videos is the humorous banter with your husband. I appreciate your candid, down-to-earth style and your recipes are quintessential country cooking. Have you made chicken and dumplings? I need to look through your videos and see. I've been on a mission to find a recipe that matches my memory of a lady's from church. She only made them when there was a death and we always privately joked that we wished someone else would "go on home to the Lord" so we could get her dumplings, ha ha. Thanks, God bless y'all.

    • @Handsthatcook

      On MY homepage, click on the magnifying glass. When the box opens, type in dumplings and my recipe will come up. You can find any recipe on any persons channel by typing a main noun in the title and hitting enter. Any recipe containing that word will come up for you to choose from (on my home page).... I make flat dumplings not puffy ones. I hope this helps!!! TFW God Bless, Linda

I knew a girl who was so "in love" with him that when you mentioned his name her eyes would roll back into her head...all you could see was the whites, lol. I was never in that type mode for any of the celebrities but I do remember having a crush on Pat Boone. I would draw a heart and put our initials inside, LOL!!! I'm sure there are more intricate meatloaves out there but this one is good and after many years of making bad ones, I was thrilled to make a decent meatloaf....try it, I think you'll like it!!

    Hi Linda, I just wanted to let you know that I, like you, haven't been a very good Meatloaf maker. I made this last night and it was really good. My hubby liked it as well. The only change I made was to the topping. To me the molasses made it a little bitter, I used twice the ketchup to the molasses ratio and it was really good. Thanks for the recipe, I'll be making this again, sans the molasses. I really enjoy your down home recipe videos. Myra

  • @janemartin229
    @janemartin229 6 лет назад

    Our favorite meatloaf has been the one on the Quaker Oats box, but you must add a sweet topping (catsup, brown sugar and maybe a little mustard). It always turns out great. This one sounds interesting if you don't mind the fat added by way of bacon grease! My cookbook of Elvis' favorite recipes has a very simple meatloaf (2 lbs. beef, 1 cup soft bread crumbs, 1 egg, and 1/4 tsp each salt & pepper) which was served with mushroom gravy. They both sound delicious!

  • @benchkey
    @benchkey 7 лет назад +4

    Suggestion: Cook the meatloaf for 15-20 minutes, then apply the topping. Reason, the topping will better adhere and not run off the sides.

    Bacon grease is a SOUTHERN thing(from the 30's, 40's, and 50's. Most people from that era saved everything and reused it in their cooking. Both of my grandmother's did. All that bacon grease might encourage a soon meeting with Elvis.

      Bj, there's nothing wrong with the meat...the bright red one I just opened...the brown was from the last of a 5 lb. roll I'd already used. It was not old or spoiled, it starts changing colors when the air hits it. If I had broken the large pieces of what you called terribly discolored meat, it would be red inside just like the other "fresher" meat. Have no fear! This was perfectly safe and perfectly delicious.

      Meat is fine ! Ground beef will smell ! If it’s bad, pork and chicken will Be slimy first then smell !
      You can make up ingredients before, then wrap tightly with foil and next day you just pop it in oven ....

      Bj Stacy: Then you are ignorant. Read this:The plastic wrap covering the ground beef you see in the grocery store is permeable, allowing some oxygen to seep through and keep the meat on the exterior red. But ground beef that’s not exposed to oxygen - like the meat that’s on the interior - will often lose its red color after a few days.
      However, if the ground beef is gray or brown throughout, it could be beginning to spoil. If you do detect an off odor or if the meat seems sticky or slimy, throw it away. Although bacteria that cause spoilage don’t always cause illness, there’s no sense in taking a chance.

    When I was a kid my mom used to make meatloaf and I absolutely hated it. Many long nights alone at the dinner table not eating.😂 I am older now and my tastes have changed. My grandmother showed how to make with turkey and really moist. I enjoyed.. this one looks spectacular! I’ll have to try;)

      It was neither sticky or slimy, had no odor and was perfectly safe to eat. If I had broken it open, it would have been pink inside. I'm sooo tired of discussing this, I'll not discuss it any more. Furthermore, I'd never feed my family OR myself, spoiled ANYTHING.

    i love sam's story and the meatloaf looks great . when i make my meatloaf sometimes i cheat and use a box of the sage flavored stovetop stuffing in the box ,black pepper and some bbq sauce in my meatloaf and fresh chopped parsley , onions ,granulated garlic, granulated onion powder , a little ketchup and than i shape it into a long loaf {i use 2 lb. of ground chuck and 1 lb. of ground pork } than i score the top with a knife like a criss crossed ham on top. than i top it with ketchup or leave it plain n serve with gravy . i forgot the eggs , and a heaping tablespoon or 2 of sour cream mixed into the meatloaf also . the sour cream makes it more tender, my mother in law told me to add this n not to over work the meat or it will get tough also . i only serve my meatloaf with gravy if i do not top it with ketchup or anything else . i sure am gonna try this recipe linda . i am good for adding things to a recipe thats not included in it . but i will follow his one to a tee. i also keep a jar of bacon grease in my fridge at all times . great for fried potatoes , eggs and so much more . god bless you both and i love hearing sam's stories . he makes me smile and reminds me of my grampa talking very slow and with a down south draw , love it !!!!! i spent many summers in wv with my grandparents and boy do i miss them and sam brings back the memories for me . ok i am chatty this sunday morning , sorry . our son bought us a box of coffee called death wish coffee , OMG 1 cup is like 3-4 . but it is a great tasting coffee . ok talk to yous all later .

      @Handsthatcook  7 лет назад +1

      Hi robotaustin12....the vinegar is a nice touch and I'll try it next time.......I was making Elvis Presley's favorite meatloaf so I made no changes to his recipe. If I had it wouldn't have been the true meatloaf he ate and defeated the purpose. TFW, commenting and the idea of introducing the vinegar to the topping. I must admit that the addition of molasses made such a delightful difference in the topping. It was completely unexpected. God Bless, Linda

  • @marilynmcclintock2974
    @marilynmcclintock2974 7 лет назад

    That really looks like a great meatloaf. Sort of like the way my sister and I used to make back in the '50's, We just put bacon strips on to bake. Does anyone put their meatloaf in a roasting pan with a lid? We always did and let the vegetables cook away and then later, just take the lid off to brown off the meatloaf. This has to be a really tasty meal. I'd like fresh home grown green beans along with this meal too. Sue in Central Indiana

    Hey Miss Linda, your meatloaf looks great. My family are all big EP fans. I have a little black spiral bound cookbook called "Recipes fit for a King" I think we sent away for it or my brother might have picked it up at Graceland. I think one of his cooks wrote it. It seems like another favorite of his was banana pudding with the nilla wafers. I think you can get the book I have on Amazon. It has a picture of Elvis on the front. Btw, I would sure like to pull up a chair and listen to some more of Mr Sam's stories, if he would care to tell them...lol. Hope you both have a wonderful Sunday.
